Shame you can't get hold of the press pack. According to https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/land_rover_rangerover_linley_auto only 1 was ever registered in the UK, or at least only one was registered as a Linley and that has been SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification) since 2015.

Sell it to a seat sniffer for a decent markup? If buying I probably wouldn't pay more than usual... but the thought occurs some people would, and as I'm also ginner the thought occurs I could contribute a few short curly's.... Her ex car and a few short curly's, some buyers might pay silly prices lol. But don't sniff the seat when I've been there.

LINLEY has entered the paint and body shop for its facelift. Should be done in about 5 weeks. I removed all the lights, door handles and body trim, lower window trims as well as the front door post moldings. I also removed the front windshield surround trims. The front and rear bumpers went to the shop separately. Removing all the listed items saved me a surprising amount of money from the original estimate...
There was a lot of acorn puck marks on the bonnet and roof as well as a tremendous amount of clear coat peeling on roof and right side of vehicle. Absolutely no rust on the body anywhere.
Looking forward to seeing it in February.....

Interesting article indeed ! Not sure just what is special about the LINLEY though (other than what appears to be a 'Royal Connection' plus marble-effect steering wheel and leather headlining ...): Would appreciate a quick description/explanation (as I refuse to follow up the RRS.net link due to their Cookies nonsense, sorry !)

It has super high-spec interior trim and a lot of one-off bits. It was meant to be the ultimate Urban version of a Range Rover. The only sold 4 so it's now ultra-rare.
